A concordance between the current AusStats tables (lotus 1-2-3 .wks format) and the proposed new tables (in .xls format) is included below. All tables are now presented in $'000, not $m. In the new tables 12 to 35 (old tables 17a to 24c), the label now reads 'By the private sector for the private sector' instead of 'Total for the private sector'.

Also attached below are links to the new tables providing a view of the proposed new format for these tables.

These changes are due to come into effect with the June quarter 2005 issue of 8762.0 which will be released on 12 October 2005.

The new product provides a range of benefits for time series clients including:

longer time series (we can now provide more than 255 observations in a single series) are presented in columns in accordance with Time Series analysis conventions

consistent and complete series metadata is provided for every series displayed

a readily recognised file format (Excel) that will 'auto launch' in most business IT environments

built in features on which clients can base reliable processing systems.

The new format files can be opened, read and manipulated using Excel 5.0/95 (or equivalent), however, some features will not be available unless you have Excel 97 (or better).
